In Annie Heisey's "We Will Be Set Free", loose, wide brushstrokes create both structure and abstraction. The painting is like a moment captured in time. The subject is innocent yet evokes mystery due to the stroke of turquoise across the eyes. This energetic composition moves our eye across the canvas -from the grey-washed figure to the bold burst of yellow- and suggests tension between presence and absence.
